Registration Now (or at least soon)
Being the administrator at POWR for the PA River Sojourn Grant program, I get to attend a number of Sojourns (or at least part of them) throughout May and June, for the purposes of checking out the trips. I have no doubt that things are going swell, while I enjoy myself along the way, promote POWR and the Sojourn program, and interact with our constituency.
Last year I attended the full 2-day Swatara, one day on the Chartiers, the full 4-day French Creek (since it was River of the Year), and the last two days of the Susquehanna. After looking over my calendar recently, it looks like my schedule this year can entertain the full 2-day Clarion on May 21-22, the final day of the Alle-Kiski-Cone on May 23, the first two days of the Schuylkill on June 5-6, the last two days of the Juniata on June 18-19, the first two days of the North Branch Susquehanna on June 23-24 (even though I attended part of the Susquehanna last year, it's important to participate again this year due to the River of the Year designation for 2004), and a final fun filled whitewater day on the Lehigh June 27.
Now I need to get my registrations in to hold spaces for me. And a major point of this post is to remind you to do the same as soon as possible. Yes, days on various Sojourns do fill up to capacity, and you don't want to miss out on the days you have identified as your first choices. Especially vulnerable are weekend dates. So to get paddling, get filling out your registartion forms now.
